I'm not sure where you live, but I'm sure there would be equivalent courses. But in general, it is an Engineering program, so you need whatever maths and whatever sciences that you can get your hands on, and you need to do well in them.

Best of Luck. :)

P.s. I'm trying Engineering as well.
 

Thread 'How to close the gap: From Independent Research to Academic Discourse'

Hello Physics Forums Community, I'm hoping to draw upon the community's collective wisdom regarding a procedural challenge that I believe many independent researchers face. I'm working on a self-contained theoretical framework from a foundational starting point. The work touches upon concepts from general relativity, quantum foundations, and cosmology, attempting to connect them based on a single relational principle. It has now reached a point, where some parameter free values seemingly...
